How to make Australian Lamingtons
I’ve always loved these Easy Australian macaroons, ever since I was a kid, as they’re the dessert my mom used to make every year for the holidays. Australian Lamingtons are no different from vanilla sponge cake squares, dipped in chocolate sauce and covered in desiccated coconut. It’s easy to prepare, but always very enjoyable.
